Captain America: Brave New Word (2025)
Captain America: Brave New World is yet another superhero movie set in a future dystopian world where an authoritarian government is in power. Captain America, of course, leads a rebellion against the government and fights to restore freedom and democracy.
The plot of the movie is predictable and lacks any originality. It offers almost no surprises or twists. There’s no character development. And there is nothing about it that leaves a lasting impression. From the very beginning, the acting is wooden and totally unconvincing. The actors don’t seem to put much effort to bring any depth or nuance to their roles. The director, Julius Onar, is completely uninspired and the cinematography is bland. There’s nothing memorable about this film.
The special effects are adequate but, nowadays, we expect a lot more but there’s nothing impressive about it. There are times when you can notice the CGI and it frequently feels artificial. The editing choppy, the story is disjointed. This all makes it difficult to follow the action. The uneven pace drags on for many periods and, if it’s not dragging, and feels rushed. I was so bored I have to confess to nodding of for some of it.
The sound is completely forgettable. It doesn’t contribute to the atmosphere of the story. And the dialogue is often cringe worthy and does give us any insights into the characters or why they doing what they’re doing.
The film’s soundtrack is forgettable and fails to contribute to the overall atmosphere. The dialogue is often cringe-worthy and fails to provide any meaningful insights into the characters or their motivations.
This lates Marvel outing is very disappointing. It fails what we have come to expect from the best of the Marvel film. And the watching experience is tedious and forgettable. Some of the special effects are ok but not even they come anywhere near saving this one. I even sat through the credits to watch the usual snippet that gives a brief idea of the next episode and that wasn’t worth waiting for. I’d recommend giving it a miss unless you’re so addicted the the Marvel Cinematic Universe that you can’t bear to miss one.
